Bills-Bengals

[Dunnie]

I think McDermott and Taylor are going to decide what they're doing, and not give a sh*t what Goodell says either way.
That was made clear when after the "5 minute" announcement was made, Taylor just walking straight over to McDermott, which was the exact right thing to do.

I would have to think and hope that if he has a pulse and is breathing although with trouble that has to be at least somewhat of hopeful news.

prayers are real

This is gonna come down to how much brain damage he may have from no oxygen, how long before they got him oxygen is huge here.

There’s no way the NFL can make them play tonight. 

They even said it... these guys are closer sometimes to each other than they are to their families... you can't go out there unless you know he's ok

Yes I coached lax as well...and yes Chuck Hughes I'll never ever forget that even though his name evaded me earlier

Oh I agree, 100%. And maybe it's not the announcers' fault for having to say it but when I heard  that I'm like, Okay, **** it. Just that they DID say it is beyond cringe.

Here's a scary stat: less than 10 percent of the people who receive cpr survive

True.  But then I'm kinda perplexed as to why when they re-established circulation and cerebral blood flow he didn't resume spontaneous breathing.  Just hope he's alive and OK.

Sean Taylor was killed during the season did they cancel any games?

No....he unfortunately died in a home invasion....not during play on the field

Could be.

It was odd how he stood up. And then collapsed.

[Rhg1084]

You know Goodell gonna have these guys finish this game

Regardless what they do postpone cancel whatever they can’t play tonight

Very possible. They should be able to defibrillate that. 
 

The only other thing I can think of is a ruptured aneurysm but unlikely with his age.

Hope we get an update soon.

I guess that the only thing he has going for him is how quickly he was able to receive care.  Hoping/praying that maybe that can make a difference.

[Dcat]

The only appropriate measure was to postpone/cancel this by now or sooner. 

But whoever claimed the NFL to be appropriate?

That's based on population statistics of who is most likely to suffer Cardiac arrest...which is not usually healthy 24 y.o. NFL football players with in all likelihood no co-existing organ/health issues.

[chirorob]

Goodell can make the call, but imagine the PR if he tells th they have to play?

If they refuse, what's he going to do?

[kevinc855]

End this game now 

Family first

Had just enough blood still reaching his brain to stay conscious

[carlito1171]

Game should have been called already

Goddell being the POS he is.......can't help himself ?

[Joe Willie White Shoes]

They keep saying there is no precedent for this, but there is with Hughes.  Plus there was the Dennis Byrd injury and the Shazier injury, which both were pretty awful as well. I guess with paralysis, the player is clearly alive. That may have not been clear with regard to Hamlin

Doesn't matter what Goodell wants. If the teams don't want to play, they won't.

The fact that they haven't done it already is surprising. The league doesn't want to cancel.

Trauma can dissect/rupture the Aorta true, but highly doubt he had an pre-existing aneurysm

[jetsons]

Hope there's good news soon.

He can’t make them do sh*t. If the players say they’re not going back out they’re not going back out. Goodell would get crushed if he tried. He has to postpone the game. 

[Dunnie]

Might need to get a corum of owners ? Cancel this thing.

It’s absurd. This is so easy and they’re still bungling it. Send them all home tonight and let the players decide tomorrow if they’re up for playing Wednesday. 

[Beerfish]

The original play did not look like a hit to the head to me, it looked like a hit to the chest.  Not an innocent play by any means but the type of contact you see 20 times a game and do not think about it.

I'll say again at least they have immediate medical attention by trained professionals.  About 10 years ago I lost an older brother i was very close to to heart failure, not a heart attack, just failure.  Apparently there were a few people where he was that tried to give cpr, but no one well trained, no de-fib machine and took a while for the ambulance to get there, by that time it was too late.

Wow, Skip Bayless being a jackass, per usual, on Twitter. Not gonna post it.

I'm not a fan of Goodell at all, but have to give him the slightest benefit of the doubt and at this point say the delay is they're focused on far more things at the moment than any official announcement.

With that said, if the game does actually continue tonight then **** him and I take it all back.

If Goodell doesn't postpone the game he would be a bigger prick then even possible.

Wow. Terrifying and awful. 
 

please pull through

I said some sh*t about Buck to start this thread and I feel like sh*t now. When he said 'Who cares?' just now about the game restarting he was right.
